Freeze-Dried Fruit
We all know the importance of getting plenty of fruits and veggies into our diets, but sometimes that can be a challenge. Freeze-dried fruit is a tasty and delicious way to eat more fruit because all of the moisture from the original fruit is removed, resulting in a light, crispy texture and concentrated flavor that’s perfect for snacking. Best of all, since only the water content is removed, the fruit still contains nearly all of its original nutritional content! Freeze-dried fruit is the perfect healthy snack for anyone who’s on the go. Check out the top 10 places to take freeze-dried fruit below.
The beach. Lugging around a cooler isn’t always ideal when you’re walking on the beach. Instead, opt for freeze-dried fruit which comes in individual bags for snacking and is lightweight so it won’t weigh you down.
In your kids’ lunchboxes. Makeover your kids’ lunchboxes by giving them fruit in a crunchy form and watch them gobble it down! Freeze-dried fruit is a healthy alternative to chips and still satisfies those crunch cravings.
Your car as an emergency snack. Sitting in traffic without a healthy snack on hand can lead to a not-so-healthy trip to the nearest drive-through. Keep a supply of your favorite freeze-dried fruit snacks in your glove compartment – no refrigeration necessary!
In college care packs. College students need all the fuel they can get to power through late-night study sessions and long lectures. Freeze-dried fruit stays fresh for years and can be easily stored in a crowded dorm room.
In your desk drawer at work. If sitting at a desk all day gives you the 2 p.m. munchies, be sure to keep some freeze-dried fruit in your desk drawer for a guilt-free treat. The only ingredient is fruit itself, so snack away!
To the airport. Skip unhealthy, sugar-laden snacks at the airport and pack freeze-dried fruit instead. Crispy Fruit by Crispy Green is TSA-approved and it’s easy to pack in your carry-on.
To the gym. It’s important to fuel your body before you workout so that you aren’t running on fumes while you exercise. Freeze-dried fruit supplies nearly all the nutrients of fresh fruit but fits conveniently in your gym bag.
On a hike. Keep your backpack light on your next hiking trip by carrying a couple bags of freeze-dried fruit. It will help supply you with the energy you need to venture on!
To the park. Don’t let a hungry toddler stop you from enjoying a day at your local park. Pack some freeze-dried fruit to keep you and your family fueled while out and about.
On a bike ride. There isn’t much room for a fresh apple or a tangerine when you’re on a bike ride, but the freeze-dried versions fit perfectly in your backpack or basket while you’re pedaling away.
